November 2010 - National Museum Volunteers

EXCURSIONS POLICY
Participating in NMV excursions is a benefit of being a member. An NMV
member may be accompanied by a non-member if they are family or a house
guest (maximum of 2), space permitting.*
Bookings
. Always make reservations by email to the organiser listed in the announcement.
. Please provide your name, mobile number plus membership status of you
and guest(s).*
. You are not registered until your request has been received by email and
an acknowledgement has been sent to you in writing.
Reservations are on a first-come, first-served basis.
.
By making a booking, you are committing to pay in full for your place.
If full payment is requested prior to an excursion and has not been
received, the organisers retain the right to pass your place to another
person.
. Often an excursion announcement will give a booking deadline. If full, the
trip may close and be finalised before this date.
. Until the excursion organiser is actually in receipt of your payment, you are
not considered to have paid.
. The NMV reserves the right to cancel an excursion if enough members do
not sign up.
Cancellations
. Your payment indicates your intention to travel. If you cancel, there will not
be a refund.
.
If you cannot attend an excursion, please notify the organiser immediately.
If you cancel your booking, unpaid fees are considered a debt owed to the
NMV. We regret that no further bookings can be made until this debt is
cleared.
WAIVER OF LIABILITY
The NMV will not provide personal insurance for excursion participants. The
Museum Group’s Excursions are an activity of the National Museum Volunteers,
which is a non-profit organization and is not a professional travel service. It
cannot be held responsible for any injury, loss, or damage that may occur
during any excursion, although the Museum Group’s Excursions will make
reasonable efforts to provide for the safety of participants.
